Offense of the Collective [Symbiotic, Aberrant]Your collective grants you strength and grows more powerful itself.Prerequisites: Create Collective, Character Level 6thBenefits: Your collective's natural attacks deal damage as if it were one size category larger and have their Critical Threat Range increased by one. These benefits are applied to any natural attack the host has while wearing the collective. The collective may have its natural attacks enchanted as if they were masterwork weapons.

Collective Synergy [Aberrant, Symbiotic]You can use the strength, agility, and fortitude of your collective to bolster your own.Prerequisites: Symbiont Collective, Offense of the Collective, Defense of the Collective, Symbiotic RushBenefits: You may use your collective's Str, Dex, and/or Con score in place of your own as long as the collective is attached. Additionally, the Collective has all of its ability scores increased by 1.

Assimilate Collective [Aberrant, Symbiotic]You merge completely with your collective, ceasing to act as separate beings and instead being one individual.Prerequisites: Collective SynergyBenefits: Your collective is no longer a separate entity, you constantly benefit from the collective's bonuses, you use your own ability scores or your collective's, whichever benefits you more so, and you become an aberration as your collective and you become one creature. Much of your original body is subsumed and replaced by your collective at this point, and you cannot be separated from your collective in any way. Your collective's mind is still separate and may, in fact, perform purely mental actions such as using knowledge skills, gaining psionic focus, or similar.

Synergized Mentality [Aberrant, Symbiotic]Your collective's mind synergizes perfectly with your own, allowing it to use your abilities and skills for you to a certain degree.Prerequisites: Assimilate CollectiveBenefits: Your collective may use any purely mental action you may have. This includes, but is not limited to, casting silent stilled spells, using powers, making knowledge checks, or gaining psionic focus (which you may benefit from in addition to your own psionic focus).

How about this

Twisted Mind [Aberrant, Psionic]Your mind further twists until it is more aberration than human.Prerequisites: Aberration Blood, Warped Mind, Madspawn, Cha 13Benefits: You gain one psionic power for each Aberrant feat you possess. The level of the power you can take is determined by the number of Aberrant feats you possess. Your manifester level for the powers gained from this feat is equal to half your character level. The DC for these powers is 10 + the power's level + your Cha mod. You cannot use the manifester level granted by this feat to qualify for feats (except other Aberrant feats) or prestige classes.
Twisted Mind Power Level
1-4: 1st
5-6: 2nd
7+: 3rd
Additionally, you gain a number of power points equal to the number of Aberrant feats you possess times your Cha mod.

Re: Aberration Blood Expanded [WIP]

Maybe a burrowing or climbing one? We have swimming and flying already, so maybe just to finish off all the movement modes? Now I think of it, a speed-enhancing one may be cool as well.

Alright then, just a quick idea;

Tunnelspawn [Aberrant]Your aberrant blood has adapted you to be like a mole.Prerequisites: Aberration Blood, Any other Aberrant featBenefits: You gain a Burrow speed equal to half your base land speed and tremorsense out to 30ft. You leave a usable tunnel behind you when burrowing. You cannot burrow through stone or other solid materials with this feat.

Earthspawn [Aberrant]Your earthbound abilities have increased to the point of being almost supernatural.Prerequisites: Aberration Blood, TunnelspawnBenefits: You gain the earth glide special ability. Your tremorsense extends to 60ft and your burrow speed increases to equal your base land speed. You can choose to leave a usable tunnel when burrowing.

I've never heard of 'byeshk'. Is it a typo, or what?

Also, I love this. I made a character who's current main problem is running out of Abberant feats to take. Now I'll see if the DM will approve these.

In addition:

Strong Blood [Aberrant]Your aberrant blood grows stronger, enhancing the benefits you gain from them.Prerequisites: Aberration Blood, one other Aberrant feat, extra movement form gained from Aberrant featsBenefits: Any movement forms gained from Aberrant Blood feats increase by 10 ft. This feat counts as 1.5 feats for the purposes of effects based on how many Aberrant feats you haveSpecial: This feat may be taken multiple times. It's effects stack.

Don't most aberrant feats that grant new movement modes use your base land speed anyway? So the Unearthly Speed feat i made would enhance them, wouldn't they?

Re: Aberration Blood Expanded [WIP]

Anyone else have some requests for aberrant feats?

Here's a new one:

Throwing Shards [Aberrant]Prerequisites: Aberration Blood, any other Aberrant featBenefits: At will, as a free action, you can grow small shards of carapace-like chitin that you can pull off and throw as ranged weapons. These shards deal 1d4 + your Str mod points of piercing or bludgeon damage and has a range increment of 30ft. You can make a full attack with these shards.Special: These shards count as natural weapons and manufactured weapons where it would be beneficial.

Well, not too sure between the two. I mean, giving a stinger would be cool, but giving existing natural attacks poison is kinda cool too, maybe as an add-on to one of the natural attack giving aberrant feats. So yeah, not too fussed.

Re: Aberration Blood Expanded [WIP]

Alright then

Venomous Aberration [Aberrant]You have gained a natural venom that can be delivered through your natural attacks.Prerequisites: Aberration Blood, a natural attack granted by an Aberrant featBenefits: Choose one natural attack that deals piercing or slashing damage granted by an Aberrant feat that you possess. A number of times per day equal to the number of Aberrant feats you possess, you can deliver a poison through the chosen natural attack. This poisons primary damage paralyzes the target for 1d4+1 rounds and has no secondary damage.

and here's another one

Eldritch Blood [Aberrant]
Prerequisites: Cha 13, Aberration Blood, Must possess a natural attackBenefits: Your natural attacks are treated as magic for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction. Additionally, they may enchant their natural attacks as if they were manufactured weapons.

Re: Aberration Blood Expanded [WIP]

I've designed a prestige class around Abberant Feats (Haven't posted it anywhere online yet though) and your cool and awesome feats ruins it because now it needs more levels to incorporate them. Thanks.

Are you going to post it? If so i'd like a link to it.

Also, does anyone else have ideas? Post full feats or request one and i'll try to make it.
